Diff Between User Defined Functions And Stored Procedures
Jun 19, 2008Hi to all, Can any body tell me what is the difference between Stored procedures and User Defined Functions ? In my assumption Function return a value or table, but SP doesn't return value instead of that SP use select statement or assign value to output statement. This is right?

Mar 7, 2001I am used to working in Access and just recently became somewhate proficient using custom functions in modules.
I am trying to figure out what the equivalent of functions is in SQL Server. I mean, does a Stored Procedure in SQL Server replace a module in Access? Can you declare different functions in SQL Server like you can in Access?
Thanks for your help.

Only Functions And Extended Stored Procedures Can Be Executed From Within A Function.
Jun 7, 2006Hi, l've created an function [GSM].[KPIAging], and test it in studio by substitule declare value, i.e.
DECLARE @sCellName VARCHAR(8)
DECLARE @dDate DATETIME
SET @sCellName = "CELL1M_1"
SET @dDate = CAST('06/Jun/2006' AS DATETIME)
EXEC GSM.KPIAging @sCellName, 'CSSR', @dDate
It work fine and return the desired result, but when l used this function in SQL,
SELECT DATEKEY, CELLREGIONKEY, CELL_NAME, CELL_ID, CSSR, GSM.KPIAging(Cell_Name, 'CSSR', @dDate)
FROM GSM.GSMCellDaily_vw
WHERE CSSR BETWEEN 0 AND 85
AND FULLDATE = @dDate
AND CM_SERV > 30
AND (TCH_TRAFFIC > 2 AND TCH_SEIZURES_ATTS > 30)
I got the following error, i.e.
Msg 557, Level 16, State 2, Line 19Only functions and extended stored procedures can be executed from within a function.
Does anyone have any idea on this, and what's the workaround for this?
Thanks you!

Using EXECUTE Statements Calling An Extended Stored Procedures From Function..
Apr 29, 2004Hi, all
I'm using Sql server 2000
I want to make select statement dynamically and return table using function.
in sp, I've done this but, in function I don't know how to do so.
(I have to create as function since our existing API..)
Following is my tials...
1.
alter Function fnTest
( @fromTime datetime, @toTime datetime)
RETURNS Table
AS
RETURN Exec spTest @from, @to
GO
Yes, it give syntax error..
2. So, I found the following
From Sql Server Books Online, Remark section of CREATE FUNCTION page of Transact-SQL Reference , it says following..
"The following statements are allowed in the body of a multi-statement function. Statements not in this list are not allowed in the body of a function: "
.....
* EXECUTE statements calling an extended stored procedures.
So, I tried.
alter Function fnTest
( @fromTime datetime, @toTime datetime)
RETURNS Table
AS
RETURN Exec master..xp_msver
GO
It doesn't work... syntax err...
Here I have quick question.. How to execute statements calling an extended stored procedures. any examples?
Now, I'm stuck.. how can I create dynamic select statement using function?
I want to know if it's possible or not..

Sep 30, 2006Hi,
This Might be a really simple thing, however we have just installed SQL server 2005 on a new server, and are having difficulties with the set up of the Store Procedures. Every time we try to modify an existing stored procedure it attempts to save it as an SQL file, unlike in 2000 where it saved it as part of the database itself.
Thank you in advance for any help on this matter
SQL Server 2012 :: Stored Proc Execution Time Diff Between Environments

I have verified sqlserver version is same on both of the server.Prod is running on 2012Sp1 however dev don't have sp1. I am downloading it.
Both are 64bit, has same collation and compatibility level.I have confirmed that sp on both servers has same execution plan. I have reset and import stats from prod too.
All My Stored Procedures Are Getting Created As System Procedures!
Nov 6, 2007
Using SQL 2005, SP2. All of a sudden, whenever I create any stored procedures in the master database, they get created as system stored procedures. Doesn't matter what I name them, and what they do.
For example, even this simple little guy:
CREATE PROCEDURE BOB
AS
PRINT 'BOB'
GO
Gets created as a system stored procedure.
Any ideas what would cause that and/or how to fix it?
Thanks,
Jason
Should I Use Function Calls In My Procedures

Using A Stored Procedure To Query Other Stored Procedures And Then Return The Results
Jun 13, 2007Seems like I'm stealing all the threads here, : But I need to learn :) I have a StoredProcedure that needs to return values that other StoredProcedures return.Rather than have my DataAccess layer access the DB multiple times, I would like to call One stored Procedure, and have that stored procedure call the others to get the information I need. I think this way would be more efficient than accessing the DB multiple times. One of my SP is:SELECT I.ItemDetailID, I.ItemDetailStatusID, I.ItemDetailTypeID, I.Archived, I.Expired, I.ExpireDate, I.Deleted, S.Name AS 'StatusName', S.ItemDetailStatusID, S.InProgress as 'StatusInProgress', S.Color AS 'StatusColor',T.[Name] AS 'TypeName', T.Prefix, T.Name AS 'ItemDetailTypeName', T.ItemDetailTypeID FROM [Item].ItemDetails I INNER JOIN Item.ItemDetailStatus S ON I.ItemDetailStatusID = S.ItemDetailStatusID INNER JOIN [Item].ItemDetailTypes T ON I.ItemDetailTypeID = T.ItemDetailTypeID However, I already have StoredProcedures that return the exact same data from the ItemDetailStatus table and ItemDetailTypes table.Would it be better to do it above, and have more code to change when a new column/field is added, or more checks, or do something like:(This is not propper SQL) SELECT I.ItemDetailID, I.ItemDetailStatusID, I.ItemDetailTypeID, I.Archived, I.Expired, I.ExpireDate, I.Deleted, EXEC [Item].ItemDetailStatusInfo I.ItemDetailStatusID, EXEC [Item].ItemDetailTypeInfo I.ItemDetailTypeID FROM [Item].ItemDetails IOr something like that... Any thoughts?

Stored Procedure Being Saved In System Stored Procedures
Apr 7, 2006We recently upgraded to SQL Server 2005. We had several stored procedures in the master database and, rather than completely rewriting a lot of code, we just recreated these stored procedures in the new master database.
For some reason, some of these stored procedures are getting stored as "System Stored Procedures" rather than just as "Stored Procedures". Queries to sys.Objects and sys.Procedures shows that these procs are being saved with the is_ms_shipped field set to 1, even though they obviously were not shipped with the product.
I can't update the sys.Objects or sys.Procedures views in 2005.
What effect will this flag (is_ms_shipped = 1) have on my stored procedures?
Can I move these out of "System Stored Procedures" and into "Stored Procedures"?
Thanks!

SSIS And Stored Procedures Results Stored In #Tables
Mar 26, 2008Hello
I'm start to work with SSIS.
We have a lot (many hundreds) of old (SQL Server2000) procedures on SQL 2005.
Most of the Stored Procedures ends with the following commands:
SET @SQLSTRING = 'SELECT * INTO ' + @OutputTableName + ' FROM #RESULTTABLE'
EXEC @RETVAL = sp_executeSQL @SQLSTRING
How can I use SSIS to move the complete #RESULTTABLE to Excel or to a Flat File? (e.g. as a *.csv -File)
I found a way but I think i'ts only a workaround:
1. Write the #Resulttable to DB (changed Prozedure)
2. create data flow task (ole DB Source - Data Conversion - Excel Destination)
Does anyone know a better way to transfer the #RESULTTABLE to Excel or Flat file?
Thanks for an early Answer

Calling Stored Procedures From Another Stored Procedure
May 8, 2008I am writing a set of store procedures (around 30), most of them require the same basic logic to get an ID, I was thinking to add this logic into an stored procedure.
The question is: Would calling an stored procedure from within an stored procedure affect performance? I mean, would it need to create a separate db connection? am I better off copying and pasting the logic into all the store procedures (in terms of performance)?
Thanks in advance

Calling A Stored Procedure Inside Another Stored Procedure (or Nested Stored Procedures)
Nov 1, 2007Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie
exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created'
returns an int value as 1
(performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created')
but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie:
exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1'
which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc):
SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example).
My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert).
Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?

The first returns a percentage for player wins, the second gives me a photo and sums the player winnings
I would like to combine the results so I can get the percentage and wininngs in one query, in another matter all together I would like create a procedure like the first but instead of returning only one player, I would like to return the percentage for each player

So i am wondering what are these used for:DECLARE vs just entering "@param1 varchar(30)"When i use "DECLARE @rc int" i get the error "Incorrect syntax near DECLARE"How to return values to ASP page in Visual Studio 2005 How to use @@rowcount - doesn't seem to work for me?i tried using DECLARE @rc intSET @rc = @@rowcountWhen to use GO, BEGIN etcIf i want to use the variable only in the procedure, and not needed to be inputed, do i need to put it in the CREATE PROCEDURE (section)?Should i use my own stored procedures or VS2005 created ones using datasources? not really procedures but SQL, in SQL can i do like IF ELSE? if i use my own i cant use the Optimistic Concurrency right? and whats that?
